woolybanana (ex tag) Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Can we please have an agreement not to reveal the ending of the imminent Harry Plotter novel this weekend. Could the Mods please pull any reference which seems to do so. In the scheme of things this is important to millions of people and we should respect that.

Clair Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 I didn't think you'd be interested in it anyway![:P]To be fair, we'd have to put it to the members' vote... [:P]Some might want to know the ending without having to lift the heavy tome (618 pages?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pierre ZFP Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 I'm with Mel on this one.The best ever HP ending was in The Simpsons when Flanders was telling his kids a bedtime story.'....and then Harry and all his chums went straight to Hell for practising Witchcraft. Hooray!' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woolybanana (ex tag) Posted July 18, 2007 Author Share Posted July 18, 2007 Wish it still worked, but at my age what can you expect. The feather inside has shrivelled. (In case a Mod is lurking who has not read the HP books, this is not a piece of smut but a reference to wand construction.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Framboise Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 So, you wave an old french stick about et abracacabra!!! Flanders Rules OK..... [kiss]I personally don't read this modern nonsense. I like the classique works of Thomas Hardy and the like - spose that means I am getting on a bit then......................... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[:(]Is that why you asked about transplant in another thread? [8-)]Do they do feather transplant for tired wands?[:-))]I hope I receive my copy of HP7 as early as the last one...

woolybanana (ex tag) Posted July 18, 2007 Author Share Posted July 18, 2007 Oh Framboise would it were so simple. My other reading matter at present is Homer's Odyssey, just finished the Iliad, and Anna Karenina. Thomas Hardy ok too but not at this time of year, nor Dickens.

Clair Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 As well as reading HP7, I shall endeavour to finish Noam Shomsky's "Hegemony or Survival" (am finding it rather repetitive but it's still early pages) and start "The Holy Qur'an", when Amazon do deliver it...

Merci pour ta gentillesse apropos de HP7. Je vais aller déplumer d'autres oiseaux pout trouver ce qu'il me faut pour réparer ma baguette. (Tu peux lire cette phrase comme tu veux!).

woolybanana (ex tag) Posted July 19, 2007 Author Share Posted July 19, 2007 But will the feather still work? Mine was of a phoenix, probably laid down (we prefer this term to 'taken') about 3000 years ago muggle time in the Middle East from the great Serphides who produced so few but such powerful feathers and then wands.
